Itinerary highlights
The Pinnacles (Beowa National Park)
The Pinnacles is a breathtaking natural landmark located within Beowa National Park on the Far South Coast of New South Wales. This striking rock formation showcases dramatic cliffs of vivid white sand and deep red clay, estimated to be 65 million years old. The white sands represent an ancient water table, while the overlying red gravel clay owes its hue to iron oxide. This unique geological composition offers a stunning visual contrast against the surrounding bushland and ocean vistas.
